Kind of like an inventory manager mechanic. I liked it! Of course the best part is the voice acting! Especially for the UFO sounds. Haha!

How does your game fit the theme?
A fast paced city builder game, where the objective is to save the buildings by rearranging an existing layout, rather than creating or planning them. Additionally, the player controls a UFO which is here to help instead of attack.

It's mindblowing how you guys managed include voice acting in such a small timeframe. I also loved the idea of aliens saving the city instead of the usual "destroy humanity" shenanigans. The city builder aspects were also cool!
Fun concept and the exposition is great! Difficult game though :P The assets are all pretty high quality and the indications for where the dangers are and are going were a nice touch.
The sunami was a bit much to deal with right off the bat though. Would be nice with a bit more gradual increase in difficulty and maybe a bit more foresight (to allow for planning ahead before the danger is already dangerous).
Nice work!
Good idea! Searched for cows, but didn't find such Easter egg :D Had 7th place after play in rank table! Wish you good luck!
Really like the idea here and the style is perfect! I also love the fact that you have a leaderboard as well at the end!
wow the performance is really fantastic. I love the newspaper and UFO design! It feels like we are in the future.
I love the idea and REALLY dig the transition from the newspaper into the game. I wish the controls were a bit easier to slide into the right spot. I was struggling with moving just one space to the side. Otherwise, GREAT work.
In general though, awesome job on a 48 hour jam!
^^ nice voice acting :D! Web version is a little laggy but still playable ;-) .
I like how many ways this game incorporated the theme, and the voice acting adds a lot of charm. Great job!
Looks great and super polished.
Simple and fun mechanic, my movement was slightly clunky but that might be my old PC trying to run this game properly, I'm not sure. Regardless it was fun!
Wow really great game! Especially the artstyle, the transition from intro to gameplay and the idea are very impressive and the music is really good and fitting too. With just a bit more balancing and making the game feel more rewarding, it would've been perfect
Great entry! Glad I checked the Discord for it :)
Gives me a bit of Futurama vibe btw :D
I love the style (sound design was hilarious) and simple mechanics, though I didn't use rotation as moving seemed to be enough. And the highscore part was a really good idea!
The art and vfx is very good. I like the voicelines and the newspapers are great and funny. While the concept is interesting, the controls feel really bad and jank. There's a huge delay between my inputs and the movement, at least on the browser (not sure if that's intended). It's also somewhat laggy, but that might be a problem on my end. Overall still very good job :)
